Search rules and guidelines An understanding of the way search works in MEArchive will improve your ability to search for and find the email messages you need. Basic Search Rules memail@.com
P a g e 4 Complete at least one search field to begin a new search. The more fields you complete, the more specific your search, and therefore the more limited the number of results. Search fields are not case-sensitive. A search for "Control Console" is the same as "control console". Select your search terms carefully. Use words or phrases that are unique to the messages you want to find. Additional Rules for Complex Searches Most special characters (including +-&!><) are interpreted as plain text when used within a word or phrase. Search supports trailing * and? wild cards searches. A * search looks for one or more characters. A? looks for a single character. Email addresses can be searched using the entire address, just the domain, or any part of the address. Use Phrase, Any Word, or All Word searches to determine how you want to search with multiple terms. Guidelines for Special Characters Special characters cannot be searched by themselves. Some special characters are allowed and can be interpreted as plain text when included as part of an alphanumeric string. Table 1: Special Characters Interpreted as Plain Text Wild Card Searches Archive search supports two types wildcards, asterisk (*) and question mark(?), when placed within a string or at the end of a string. memail@.com
P a g e 5 A wildcard character cannot be placed at the beginning of a text string. It is best to avoid placing a wildcard too early in a search term, or with too few characters. For example, a search using horse* will return better and faster results than h* or h*s. Wildcards cannot be used in a Phrase search. Asterisk (*) Wild Card Examples The asterisk (*) searches for one or more characters. Table 2: Asterisk (*) Wild Card Examples Question Mark (?) Wild Card Examples The question mark (?) searches for a single character. Table 3: Question Mark (?) Wild Card Examples Email Addresses Email addresses can be searched using the entire address, just the domain, or any part of the address. Search email addresses in the From and Recipient fields. You search for a full email address or part of an address. You can search parts of an address that: Are separated by special characters. Switch between upper and lowercase.

The total size of the file you download cannot be larger than 1 GB. If your result set is larger, you should refine your search criteria and limit your results. At download, the system re-runs your original search. As a result, the set of messages in the zip file may differ from your initial results due to changes in the archive.

The Customer Administrator role receives the envelope journal as well as the original message which is included as an attachment. NOTE: A zip file utility is required for extracting the email files.
